Sample Tours
14 Day Private Tour of Japan
This model itinerary is a perfect all-rounder. It works at any time of the year, and covers all the must-see locations for visitors to Japan. It can be further customised to suit your preferences.
For 14 days in Japan, you will explore the modern capital Tokyo, and travel westward to the central part of Japan to see Mt Fuji up close, before heading to the lovely mountainous towns of Matsumoto, Takayama and Shirakawago. Of course, the itinerary extends to the ever-popular Hiroshima and Miyajima before concluding the trip in Kyoto and Osaka.
The itinerary is comfortably paced, but you can further modify it to suit your personal preference. This 14-Day Private Tour of Japan is an ideal introduction to Japan’s diverse landscapes as well as its classic sights and hidden treasures.
Japanese Garden and Art Private Tour
Japanese gardens are well-known for their style and sophistication, and have a great number of fans around the world. If you are one of them, try this grand 15-day tour of Japanese Garden and Art!
This Art and Japanese Garden Private Tour of Japan is designed to show you different styles of Japanese gardens as well as both ancient and contemporary art. There are endless choices of gardens and art destinations in Japan, and we went to great lengths to come up with this selection.
While our model itinerary is a great place to start, as it is a private tour, you can modify it, slow it or extend it as you like. Tell us about your favourite styles of gardens and art, and we will design the trip for you.
6-Day Walking Tour of Nakasendo
Enjoy a popular walking trail along the Nakasendo Way with comfort and ease. This model itinerary includes 5 days of walking with a luxury onsen ryokan stay at the end. It can be totally self-guided with support, or with private guide.
This 6-Day Walking Tour of Nakasendo model itinerary covers the most naturally beautiful and culturally rich section of the Nakasendo. You can use it on its own or connect with other parts of Japan easily.
Unlike many other Nakasendo walking tours, we have mixed different types of accommodation from the rustic minshuku (guest house with shared bathroom) where samurais and merchants would have stayed hundreds of years ago to high quality ryokans with private facilities. As a bonus we added a luxury onsen (hot spring mineral bath) ryokan experience at the end, too.
